I thought that maybe people would like to have a translation
of the blue magic in FFV, so here it is. It's not complete, but it will have
to do until I have some more free time. Then again, the only things that I want
to add are which monsters you can get each spell from, and more on what the
effects of each spell are, as my Japanese is not all that great, and I didn't
fully test all of them. Anyway, here is my list of the blue magic from FFVj
(ver. 1).

[If the names are given in katakana, there is no romanization
given; the reading of the spell is then in the Translation column.]

How to get "efu efu".
Okay, first of all, "efu efu" is a bug item. It's not supposed to exist, but
it does. Anyway, you need two things to get this.

You need Jikuu Mahou [Time/Space Magic] "Quick".

You need Jikuu Mahou [Time/Space Magic] "Meteo".

You also need one person who can cast both of these. "Renzokuma"
[Continuous Magic] would be nice ability to have.
When you have all of above, encounter enemy. Then kill every one else except
the person casting "Quick" and "Meteo". If you killed other three members,
cast "Quick" then cast "Meteo" to yourself. You must kill yourself with this
"Meteo". Then, after the battle, someone will have an item called "efu efu"
equipped. (On their right hand...I think) It doesn't always happen so if you
didn't get one, try again. "Efu efu" makes all physical damages to zero. But
you can't equip any shield nor weapon. Once you remove this, this item will
be gone.

[Note from Nora: I've never gotten this to work. Meteo
is a full-party spell, and I either can't get it to point at me or it kills
everyone in my party, and there's me, "sentou funou". Has anyone had any
luck getting "efu efu"?]

This also has requirements.

You need one person who can do "Chougou" [Mixing].

You need one person who can do "Renzokuma" [Continuous
Magic].

Okay, then you encounter enemy. Then do any "chougou" [Mixing]
to anyone. Now, you're all set. Choose single target magic as first magic
for "Renzokuma" [Continuous Magic]. (I'll use Raise as example) So, let's
say Lenna chose Raise as her first choice of "Renzokuma" [Continuous Magic]
and chose Butz as target. Then choose some magic that can be casted to multiple
target. Okay, so Lenna chooses Kearu and casts it to everyone in the party.
When it's Lenna's turn to use"Renzokuma" [Continuous Magic] you get Raise
to every one in your party!! This is especially useful during boss battles,
because you can cast "Shell" to everyone in single turn!! One note: Don't
cast Flare and Holy to multiple enemies. The game screen will go wild. (and
freezes) This also works with "Mahouken" [Magic Sword], I think. I'm not sure.
I think you can choose "Mahouken" [Magic Sword] during "Renzokuma" [Continous
Magic].

That depends--do you want the Super Famicom version or the
new Playstation version?

If you'd like to try the original Japanese-language cartridge
(and don't forget you'll need an adaptor or some minor console surgery to be
able to play it on a US machine), you may have to jump through some real hoops
for it. I've heard you can purchase it from Game Land. I personally have bought
a couple of copies (dirt cheap) in the past from used game stores in Japan.
However, there's a rumor that used games are no longer allowed to be sold in
Japan, and if that's true, it's tragic! Alternatively, there's always eBay.

The Playstation version--an English translation that is included
on the Final Fantasy Anthology collection--should be readily available in any
game store in the States (at least). It and every other Playstation game are
compatible with Sony's Playstation 2.
